52 Things – Go camping with my whole family

We did this back in July but I just realized that I never checked it off the list, so here we are:

36. Go camping with my whole family

Back on July the 4th, we went to Samuel P Taylor State Park. I wanted to go for one night to see if Nathaniel could go through with it. We went about 90minutes north of where we live. It was supposed to be a quiet spot and I figured if things go badly, we could always pack up and go home. Here are some of the photos I took and posted around then:

We had a really great great day. David loved every single moment of it and so did Nathaniel. Jake and I slept really badly but the kids snored like champs. I think there’s definitely more camping in out future. Or maybe some cabin-staying since I am not so sure my back can handle the ground as well as it used to.

All in all, I am really really glad we did it.

  • Ca doit être un endroit vraiment magnifique, ça respire le calme, la zenitude… vous avez passée une superbe journée

  • What lovely pictures. I would love to go camping with the family but my husband thinks they are still too young (6,3 years old and 11 months). I think I’d go for the cabin as well as I do like feeling comfortable. The most important thing is to spend time with the family and what I like about outings is that we get to see our kids from a different angle. On our one day trips I always come back thinking to myself that I have yet again discovered something special about each of my boys even my husband. I am never bored when they are around. Thanks for sharing your stories because they always seem to awaken mine.

      i totally agree about spending time and seeing things from a different angle. i’ve never done the cabin so let me know how it goes if you do it. i worried nathaniel would be too young too but we brought his packn play and he slept like a charm 🙂

    Such beautiful photos of your camping trip! Im with you though, I love everything about camping but the sleeping arrangements!

    Camping is such a bonding experience with family. We go several times a year. Yes, cabins are nice but tenting it is an awesome experience as well. I’d invest in these great double air mattresses. So much better than a regular one. Hope you can enjoy it again sometime.
